I wish the NY times wouldn't make me login so I wouldn't have to use BugMeNot every single time. At least there's an ff plugin.

Accessing NY times articles from a Google search will let you view the article without logging in.

If NYT makes you login, clear your cookies. Easy peasy.

That's what I always do. I wonder if you could make a browser plugin that just did this automatically. Can plugins clear cookies?

Have you tried blocking cookies from NY Times completely in the Prefs -> Privacy -> "Exceptions" area. Also, there is https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1243 - which does the same thing as adding to Exceptions, but with a different way of adding sites to the rules afaik.

Also, there's the whole "Private Browsing..." mode in Safari, but I couldn't find something similar last time I hunted for something along those lines in Firefox built in.

I think I tried it and the NYT refused to show me pages.
